Just picked up an 09 Electra Glide Classic today, Flame Blue Pearl/Pewter Pearl, with every option. Just went by the dealer to pick up some parts for the RK to change the oil before Street Vibrations..................guess I dont need to change the oil now!! Traded the RK for it, MAN does this bike BLOW THE 05 AWAY. The 09 is WAY more stable and corners like its on rails. Even with all the upgrades that were on the RK, there is no comparison.

You are going to have to get out the digital camera aim it at the bike and push the button on the top. We have all seen that link before...

Good for you Mountainkowboy. Bet that new bike of yours sure is neat, that's a great color combination. There seems to be a huge difference between the 05 and the new ones. congratulations, ride safe.
